You'll be hard pressed to find sympathy for him here. If eye witness statements are true, people in a diabetic coma do not curse at and flip people the finger.

are you a doctor? or a diabetic? or have you lived your whole life with one? because you ARE WRONG... people in diabetic coma's CAN in fact do exactly what you stated above they could not do. I've lived with a diabetic for 32 of my 40 yrs... hyperglycemia (high blood glucose) as well as hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) can make a person do all sorts of things they wouldn't normally do. exactly why a diabetic in a diabetic coma can be mistaken for someone intoxicated. Fortunately for me, i've only witnessed my mother fall into a diabetic coma ONCE... and she was very combative when we tried to get her moved to the living room so the paramedics could more easily transport her to the hospital.

not defending this guy in this accident one bit, but it CAN happen.

:poorbaby:

its ok....

Im sure they did extensive bloodwork while in the hospital... and as you know they do a test to see what your blood sugar has done over the past several months.

if he was diabetic and that comes back showing it was under control... :shrug: and even over the last several months.

sure the police have gone thru this over and over before the charged him.

My question is ... if a diabetic coma is SO BAD.. how could you negotiate the road, turns that road has ... AND A TRAFFIC LIGHT... with a bend into it? :coffee: and not have plowed over anything else?

Even if that is the case, he still killed two people because he did not do what he was supposed to do.

Not controlling your diabetes, to me, is no different than getting behind the wheel after a drinking binge.. Diabetes, DUI, dead victims are no less dead either way.

This. I'm diabetic and I keep granola bars in my glove box in case my sugar drops dangerously low. It's my condition, it's my responsibility to manage it and not be a danger to others. You KNOW when you are impaired because of blood sugar levels, you shake like crazy, sweat and feel absolutely psychotic. It's not a condition you should be walking in, let alone driving.

I wonder if he will be ordered to pay child support to the children he took a parent away from.

I am shocked that they actually found him guilty. Not that I think he's innocent but the judicial system in this county baffles me.
